Who knew that a former 'N Sync member and 'That 70s Show' actress could ever exude enough chemistry to not only star in the film 'Friends With Benefits,' but also in the Lust in Translation editorial for Elle magazine? I have to admit that browsing through these images has gotten me pretty excited to check out that film because, boy oh boy, are Mila Kunis and Justin Timberlake ever hot together. Not to mention that Timberlake is bearing all his assets (if you get my drift) in it.

Shot by Carter Smith, the Lust in Translation editorial was styled by Joe Zee. Instead of being overtly sensual, it is instead incredibly intimate. It really captures what it means to friends and lovers, not just the latter.
